ONLINE SUBMISSION: TEMPLATES
Templates are provided in order to allow authors to view their paper in a
style close to the final printed form. Their use is optional.
All manuscripts will be fully typeset from the author's electronic files. It
should be noted that due to defined typesetting standards and the complex
requirements of electronic publishing, the Publisher will not always be able
to exactly match the layout the author has submitted. In particular, in the
finished journal article, figures and tables are usually placed at the top or
bottom of pages. The template is only intended to be used in assisting with
the preparation and submission of manuscripts. It should be noted that use of
the journal template is not a requirement and its adoption will neither
speed nor delay publication. Elsevier can handle most major word processing
packages and in general most formatting applied by authors for style and
layout is replaced when the article is being typeset.
IMPORTANT NOTES ON USAGE
These templates contain a large number of macros. To ensure successful PDF
conversion, it is important that the author saves a new document based on the
template, rather than saving the template itself. To use the template, the
author should save the final document as a Word file with a '.doc' extension
(rather than the '.dot' extension).
